Abstract :
Progress in LSI technology has led to the concept of system-on-chip (SOC) that is still evolving to meet various applications for information processing and networking. SOC is composed of different IP cores such as MPU, RAM, RF, Analog, ASIC, DSP, Flash memory and even sensors. To realize high-performance and low power consumption in SOC, the design and fabrication of such complex systems need to overcome difficult technology roadblocks. This paper reviews key issues on 65 to 45nm node CMOS technology and related R&D challenges, together with the future prospects of silicon technology.
